For your safety, only use an existing doorbell transformer within the range specified below to power your device. For connecting to an existing doorbell system:
- Hardwired transformer (8 to 24 VAC, 50/60Hz, 5VA to 40VA)
Not compatible with: DC, halogen, and garden-lighting transformers
The simplest way to identify which type or doorbell chime you have is to listen to the sound it makes. As its name indicates, a mechanical chime creates its sound by using a physical bell and a mechanical hammer and makes a traditional "ding-dong" sound. An electronic doorbell chime plays pre-recorded digital tones through an electronic speaker and often has a selection of different tones you can choose from.
If you're genuinely uncertain what type of doorbell chime you have, you can also find the chime box, take off the front, and look inside for a bell and hammer or an electronic speaker.
Below is a list of mechanical and electronic doorbell chimes we have tested and confirmed.
